Peanut-Crusted Grilled Scallops with Pomegranate Glaze

Pomegranate Glaze:

1 cup Pomegranate syrup
1/2 cup Fresh orange juice
1/8 cup Honey

Scallops:

2 lbs scallops
2 Tbs Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 cup toasted and coarsely ground unsalted Good Earth Peanuts

Mix all the ingredients together for the Pomegranate glaze in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the glaze coats the back of a spoon**Transfer to a small bowl and slightly cool.

Heat the grill to medium. Toss the sea scallops with the oil in a medium-size bowl and lightly season with salt and pepper. Grill the scallops for  4 minutes per side, or until dark golden brown and firm.

Swirl each scallop in the warmed glaze and transfer to a platter.
Sprinkle the peanuts on top and turn scallops to sprinkle the other side with peanuts to coat. Serve immediately.
